Category: Paramagneticoxygenanalyzer

A Servomex is a paramagnetic oxygen analyzer. It is used to tell you what your gas identity is and the strength / purity of that gas. A Servomexs accuracy is (+ or -) 0.1% oxygen and has been validated by ORSAT apparatus to USFDA Pharmacopoeia 23.
Oxygen is magnetic! Oxygen is attracted to a strong magnetic field most other gases are not. This para-magnetism is used to obtain fast, accurate measurements.
If your oxygen analyzer reading is 99.5%, then your oxygen is between 99.4% and 99.6% pure.
Why cant I use my handheld analyzer when testing the identity and purity of my gas?
A handheld analyzer uses fuel cell sensors which are much less accurate (+ or -) 3.0%. This means that your 99.5% oxygen could be anywhere from 96.5% and 100% pure (possibly not Oxygen USP)! Therefore, the FDA has specified using a paramagnetic analyzer, such as Servomex.
